Taylor Custom Collection Grand Concert 12-Fret - Maple & Sitka Spruce

---

Custom Collection

The Taylor Custom program is designed to bring a truly unique instrument to life. With Taylor’s full range of model options, tonewoods, body shapes, aesthetic details and design features, these instruments are built to select specifications to match any playing style and musical sensibilities, producing a one-of-a-kind heirloom-quality instrument.

 

With its gorgeous figuring and bold, player-reflective voice, the hand-selected, figured Big Leaf maple that forms the back and sides of this custom Grand Concert serve up a delightful combination of visual style and sonic sophistication.

A Sitka spruce top rounds out this compact custom model, which is detailed with exclusive appointments like a maple neck, faux tortoiseshell binding, a single-ring rosette in ivoroid and faux tortoiseshell, a glossy Vintage Sunburst finish for the back, sides and neck with a black top treatment, Gotoh 510 tuners in antique gold with black buttons, and bone bridge pins with a dark stain.
